Top 40 Country Songs – September 2011
The September 2011 list of our Top 40 Country Songs -- based on charts, staff reviews and reader input -- is packed with debut singles from artists with new albums in stores this fall. There will be no shortage of Christmas gift ideas for the country music fan in your life come holiday season. Four of the Top 5 songs are from just released or yet to be released albums from artists like Toby Keith, Rodney Atkins and Dierks Bentley. None of these men were strong enough to take the top spot, however. That honor goes to a song that should be in contention for Song of the Year honors this awards season.
Jake Owen made the biggest leap from the August 2011 list. His song 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night' jumped 14 spots. Lady Antebellum debuted inside the Top 30 with their new song 'We Owned the Night.' Miranda Lambert and Jason Aldean also made strong first impressions. Find your favorite songs on this list, and as always, let us know where we got it wrong in the feedback section at the bottom of the page.
